Projects home

My name is Paul Mac and I am an electrical engineer in the Tampa / St. Petersburg area in sunny Florida. I use this wiki as a notebook for projects I've done in the past or projects I'm currently working on. Below you can see a list of my projects or you can go back to the home page.

DBL Flusher - A little device that will drive a servo motor to flush a toilet automatically.

Jeopardy PIC buzzer - My first real attempt at using a Microchip PIC. Uses a basic PIC16f84a and a simple assembly program to detect which player buzzes in first. Very similar to the reactions game below but only uses a couple TTL chips along with the PIC.

Reactions Game (power point) - One of my very first digital projects. A game called Reactions built using discrete logic. The point is to be the first person to "buzz in" when the light goes active. Whomever has the quickest reactions wins.

Double Wide Shelving - Some shelving I built for the garage. Designed completely with Google SketchUp from scratch.

Creative USB interface - Using a PIC18f4550 with built in USB to crate a device to easily communicate with a computer
